Sligo stealing our players again, they're like the Kildare of Connacht  ;D
Agreed. It's out of control at this stage. Disgraceful

I couldnt give a shite about where it's played, but a final isn't supposed to be played in the first neutral venue Ya could find its supposed to be in the best stadium or else a predecided venue, isn't that why the Dubs never move Croker
You can forget about Sean Cavanagh as far as he's a man!

Days before the last Mayo v Sligo Connacht final in Hyde park Conor Mortimer took his ball and went home will any Mayo player pull a similar stunt in the next few days?
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

When/where was this Fintan ruddy thing announced?  What club does he play for?

What was the other goalie incident you are referring to Seanie?

Who was our sub goalie?
I used to be indecisive but now I'm not too sure.

Cillian and Aido inside, Doc as a sweeper (Maybe Mac too)

Id like to be keeping Andy and Dillon on the bench

Fairly decent  bench the two Morans, Dillon, Ronaldson, young Sweeney is good for a goal, Donie Vaughan, GerCafferekey, very good sub keeper

Was he our keeper for the 2004 All-Ireland U-21 Final v Armagh?

Just thinking out loud here but is this Ruddy thing a tactical move.

The dogs in the street are expecting Mayo to press the Sligo short kick-outs to 1. hopefully to force an error or two and snaffle a couple high up and 2 to force the long kick-out where it would appear we might have an advantage.

Ruddy could be landing kick-outs way down on the Mayo hb line. Ok Mayo might still be able to get more of these but it's well away from danger area. If Sligo can then stop the Mayo runners and effect turnovers the game would have a different dynamic to the one people are expecting. That is Sligo having to work short kick-outs under a high press.

Would dropping the regular keeper be too disruptive though? He did fine v Ros apart from one or two early jittery kick-outs.

It would not be very good for the morale of the group if a player brought in a few weeks before a provincial final gets a starting place instead of a lad who has been bursting his ass all year.

It's a non-runner, Devaney will start. He is a good shot stopper, yet to concede a goal in championship football. His kick outs are also a huge improvement on previous keepers.

Saw this on rte today.  Would be nice to repeat on Sunday

My first Connacht final. Seems like a different century ;D ;D

Sligo won that in McHale Park too, fair play to them.
